You folks who believe pigeon shoots are cruel and somehow contributing to the waning bird population, should inform yourself about pigeons. There is a reason they are called skyrats. When a pigeon shoot is to be held, an order is placed for so many pigeons. These are generally trapped in cities, warehouses and barns, where pigeons are very much a pest and the ridding of them is considered a public health issue. The pigeons could simply be dispatched when trapped, but at the shoots, they have a fighting chance to escape, breed again and return to pesthood, spreading disease in cities, warehouses and barns. At some pigeon shoots, restaurants line up to restock for menus using the lowly pigeon.

Why do you people hate pigeons so much. One day you all will be burning in hell for your feelings. That is a day i look forward to. To see you all roast for all eternity.

Here in California, pigeons are just disease carrying rats with wings. They crap all over the place and if the poor sap cleaning up the mess isn't protected well enough it can put him in the hospital or worse.

Yup, diseased rats with wings... And target practice

Nothing wrong with killing vermin.

BTW, that is not very nice of you to say. If you are Christian and believe in hell I hope you have to answer for your statement.

Do not forget the lice and ticks.

I'm only human, it's my biggest flaw.

We must all realize a sink a chair and a pillow are all luxuries of home and a soldiers helmet takes the place of all three.

I'm waiting for someone to take down a military drone! That will be a day to celebrate! Seeing a animals rights drone shot down is a worthy replacement and almost equal in nature for me though!!!

Good job to whoever shot it!

you're a complete moron if you think drones are explicitly used by liberals. do you really think if romney had won the election the US would quit using drones? do you really believe bushco never used drones? you rightards are so delusional it's pathetic. grow up

PETA is a terrorist organization. It would be really cool if we could just round them all up and ship them to GITMO or something. Did anyone here know that they used to go and actually protest the Oscar Meyer Wiener Mobile? Yep, they did it! How fucking fascist do you have to be when you make it your lifes mission to control what people can eat??

Interesting how sport killers always have their justification list handy to support the intentioned murder of birds, deer, coyotes, etc. by saying they are overpopulated, aggressive, pests, filthy, etc. . . . yet they fail to address how they'd feel if beings from a "higher" species were to randomly - and for the sheer fun/sport of it - kill humans because they believe humans are overpopulated, aggressive, pests, filthy . . . just saying.

Being a hunter myself I am absolutely 100% ok with the harvesting of animals for food, etc. But, what these guys are doing at these live pigeon shoots is absolutely deplorable!! It is 100% inhumane and cruel to these animals, watch the videos of these shoots for yourselves, they are disgusting. Any responsible hunter will tell you that their goal is to harvest their choice of game while making a clean kill. One shot, one kill, that is what responsible hunters believe in, not torturing animals. I hope the guys that are at these shoots someday feel in some small way the torture that they have inflicted on these animals. To kill animals merely for the joy of killing is sick and twisted on the highest order. In the same breath these shark guys have been butting heads with these pigeon shoot guys for a while, what did they think was going to happen invading the private airspace of a bunch of drunked up guys with guns.

I agree, i only kill what i will try to eat or kill for pest control. I dont kill for the sake of it, i think thats unfairly cruel.
